The ongoing digitisation of individual and collective remembrance results in the growing role of algorithmic curation of information about the past by web search engines. This process, however, raises multiple concerns, in particular considering that performance of complex algorithmic systems, including the ones dealing with web search, is often subjected to bias. In this guest post, Mykola Makhortykh shares his experience of studying biases in visual representation of the Holocaust across six major search engines, and discusses its implications for Holocaust remembrance.
